Experiences of round school as a learning activity So, I think it’s important for the staff also to have an idea of what is supposed to be done and some … we should have some rules too “should we meet the patient before this or not?”, we didn’t get any clear details on how to perform this task. #6 And that’s the main thing, that we could bounce ideas off each other, and of course we didn’t know the answers to everything, but it still helps if you can reason with one another and think aloud, so I think that was almost the best thing actually about round school, that you got a chance to do that. #6 I agree with you there, that it’s good to … for … for everyone at the ward, too, so they knew that “now there’ll be a medical student and a nursing student doing the rounds” to there was more time and so on, that maybe we were given a bit more space than what you get during regular rounds, because then it can often be sometimes that maybe you get to start and then someone else will take over. #1	Learning

Reflections regarding interprofessional competence Yeah, but we can like recommend that maybe “this person needs this” and then it’s the physician who prescribes it, if it’s necessary. #2 The nurse maybe thought that “No, I don’t really agree with that prioritization,” but then they’ve made that decision and then that’s how things will be. #3 Yeah, so what I’m thinking is that … that the nurse, with the help of aides or nursing assistants, is in closest contact with the patient and kind of has … the main part of the patient contact, I mean if we compare with the physician who is maybe not out on the ward to the same extent, that you can help the patient, act as support for the patient, and help out in communicating things to the physician, who makes decisions on investigations and so on. #2 So that’s closer to how I have perceived it, that the nurse’s role together with the aide, is to speak for the patient and kind of focus on the care of the patient and “how have things been today, socially?”, what do we see that the physician can’t see in their conversation, when we see them in a different environment. #2	Responsibilities	Independent
